When does a person need a legalized document?
The legalization of a document is necessary when a person needs a specific document in a foreign country. Please mind that if your document was issued in Romania, the legalization of the document has to be done in Romania; this is required regardless if you need your documents as legalized translations in English for a country where the English language is a national language.
There are two types of procedures for legalizing a document – the standard legalization of the document, and the apostille, which also represents a legalized version of the document, but which is issued as a certificate provided by the Romanian authorities that is recognized by the authorities of the country where one needs the document – the latter applies as long as the country where you need the legalized translation in English is a member of the Hague Convention 1961.
Thus, the legalized document, regardless of the procedure, is an authenticated version of the original document, through which the authorities of the countries that issued the document certify the validity of the translated document, which will be translated by our Romanian translators.
